LED ZEPPELIN Warned Off 'Pointless Tour'

October 28, 2008

BBC News reports that major UK promoter Harvey Goldsmith has said that LED ZEPPELIN should not hit the road for a major tour with a new singer.

Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones and Jason Bonham of the legendary rock group have auditioned vocalists to take the place of frontman Robert Plant.

"I certainly don't think they should do a big tour because I can't see the point of it," Goldsmith said.

Goldsmith, who promoted the band in the 1970s and '80s, as well as their one-off reunion last year, added there may be "some opportunities" for a reunion.

He added that, should Page, Jones and Bonham recruit a new singer, they would be likely to tour under a different name.

"I doubt it will be called LED ZEPPELIN," Goldsmith told BBC News.
